A Nigerian lady has taken to social media to express shock and confusion after discovering that several ShopRite outlets in Abuja were shut down.

According to her, she first visited ShopRite at Silverbird Galleria, only to find the store completely closed. Thinking it was a one-off issue, she proceeded to ShopRite at Jabi Lake Mall, but met the same situation — doors locked.

Still hoping to shop, the lady then headed to ShopRite at Novare Gateway Mall, Lugbe, but was left stunned once again as the outlet was also shut down.

Clearly disturbed by the repeated closures, she took to social media to ask the big question on everyone’s mind:
“I went to ShopRite Abuja and it was shut down everywhere. Has ShopRite finally closed in Nigeria?”

Her post has since sparked massive reactions online, with many Nigerians sharing similar experiences, while others speculate about rising costs, economic pressure, and possible store shutdowns.

As of now, ShopRite has not officially announced a complete exit from Nigeria, but the growing number of closed outlets has left shoppers worried and searching for answers.
👀 Is this just restructuring… or the beginning of the end?

Summary:

An Abuja lady sparked online discussion after visiting several ShopRite outlets in the city and finding them closed, leading to questions about whether the closures are part of store restructuring or a wider change in ShopRite’s operations in Nigeria.

They are restructuring.

ShopRite couldn't survive the economic shege which we've been plunged into,thereby sending them into the Mr. Biggs way

The owner of Shoprite in Nigeria is no longer interested in the brand name hence the change to a new name.

They are just rebranding.

Our own Hmedix has taken over.......Thats rite!!!

The more Shoprite close down their outlets over here, the more HMEDIX open up more shopping mall Across Abuja.

Just like Dangote Vs NMDPRA, When a hausa man mean you, just kiss it goodbye.

Retailing is hard, especially in Nigeria.

Shebi weve been hearing 'restructuring' over the years?

GOFRONT:
Our own Hmedix has taken over.......Thats rite!!!

Them dey plenty now

MarketSquare
Prince Ebeano
Boku H-Medix
Sa'ad Store
Everyday
Just Rite
Etc

It seems like they are restructuring. I hope they will make the official statement soon.

Patronise HMedix, Ebeano, Spar or 4U.. they all sell the same thing tho

Shoprite needs to go for our own local stores to boost up..

We now have just rite & others..

Plenty stores dey naija now..

A company cannot close for Christmas again? That her employer makes her work till a day before Christmas doesn’t mean all bosses are the same.

Someone stated that they are closing all supermarkets outside South Africa, and want to focus on their home country alone.

Good riddance!
ShopRite is owned by racist Oyibo South Africans.
Allow indigenous Roban Stores take over.

They are just restructuring.

Whats so special about shoprite...In ph there are other mega super markets like shoprite and they all sell similar products.

Hehehehehe

Desperately searching for excuses! A major retail outlet closing down in the run-up to Christmas, and sending its employees on early holiday! You can only hear of such in Tinubus' Nigeria where commonsense is stood on its head!

Ebeano offers the best price in Abuja.

Kingsway stores, pre Buhari years, in Lagos Island, Ibadan and Enugu respectively!

The end began years ago! The real shop rite left 4 years ago........the one thats battling for life na Ronu shop rite!

They will announce it when the decision is made. For now, just watch and wait.

For the lady, it's not a big deal. Just go elsewhere. If you want to shop, just go to a shop that is open for business.
